@lohang @hobbsc I missed most of the conversation. I did hear from Erkan when site went down last time. He said his hoster updated his #PHP version, breaking federation. He said then that he would not be renewing domains or hosting. This may be another hiccup, or it may be the final thing.about 4 months agofrom nu.federati.netpermalink

@vinzv @maiyannah @takeshitakenji First of all, @erkanyilmaz hasn't been active in the #fediverse for a long time. But also, I know he's not happy with his hosting provider because they updated his #PHP version without warning a few times and broke some of his sites*. I don't expect he'll keep it running much longer.

Some interesting things from the yearly survey from arguably the most popular #programming related site on the internet.

Coding isn’t just a career; it can be a passion. Among all developers, 75.0% code as a hobby; even among professional developers a similar proportion (73.9%) do so. Additionally, 32.7% of developers said they contribute to open source projects.

Gibberfish, Inc is an all-volunteer nonprofit started in 2017. We are developing a self-installing, encrypted "cloud" platform based on Nextcloud and we're raising funds so that we can host free instances for activists, human rights defenders, and other groups fighting for social, economic, and environmental justice.

Resources permitting, we also wish to maintain decentralized services for the general public, such as our new Diaspora* pod social.gibberfish.org, which is now open for registrations.

Additionally, we're looking for contributors, especially those with UI and php experience, to help us get our beta completed. If you're interested in helping out, drop us a line here or email info@gibberfish.org

Please check out our website and follow the #gibberfish hashtag to keep up-to-date on our developments.
